The cyclic triaxial testing system is a highly advanced combination of hydraulic and pneumatic technology where s1 is applied through hydraulic system in dynamic tests and s2 & s3 are applied through pneumatic system. It is totally based on Close Loop principle. The processing of the pre-programmed signal and machine response signal in the P.I.D. Controller is at the speed of 10 KHz. This keeps the machine working within the limits of ± 1% of the programmed signal. Confining pressure & Back pressure are also controlled through computer and operates on close loop control mechanism.
The system is capable of performing following tests as per relevant standard ASTM/BS/AASHTO/IS etc.: Saturation, consolidation, UU, CU, CUBar, CD Triaxial tests with pore pressure and Volume change measurement, Isotropic and Anisotropic tests, Stress & Strain Path control tests, Liquefaction test, Stress Controlled Cyclic Triaxial strength of soils, Strain Controlled Cyclic Triaxial strength of soils, determination of modulus and damping properties of soils, Resilient Modulus of soils etc. (Optional- Ko consolidation tests & Bender Element tests)
Salient Features
Loading Frame of the cyclic triaxial testing apparatus is free standing two pillar type unit. It has a base and a cross head with fitted actuator along with servo valve. Cross head carrying the Hydraulic Actuator for conducting dynamic tests is movable on threaded columns to adjust the height of the sample. Arrangement is also provided for locking of the crosshead at any desired position. An lectromechanical system consisting of highly precise servo motor is provided for conducting routine static tests. Static and dynamic loading would be fully computer controlled. It can accommodate Triaxial cell for sample sizes up to 100mm diameter & 200mm height.
Actuator is a linear motion device, which gives a controlled motion either on stress basis or strain basis. It is a precision piece of equipment which follows the command from the
wave generator through the servo valve. It is an equal area ram and piston with surface finish of 0.2 microns. End plates have metallic seals for side thrust. Servo valve is fixed to the actuator. These valves are high performance two stage valves with a pressure drop of @70 bars.
